Resident Evil 5: E3 Hands On

by Stephen on July 16, 2008

We got the opportunity this time to test drive the game on E3. Control wise, it is taking most of the control from it’s predecessor RE4 with some minor changes. Like you can now aim with your right analog. This time you will have the ability to control you teammate and access areas inaccessible alone. You can also requests for help or help your teammate whenever she is in jeopardy, like when the hordes of zombies corner her. You can kick, smash and do more to help. An improvement for control is the ability to quick swap you weapon with previously selected, instead of having to access start menu. You will see the creep with chainsaw again, this time slimmer, faster and more aggressive. Resident Evil is definitely intense, not for the faint hearted, with more surprises for you. [au.IGN.com]
